Explanation / Answer

The statistical software output for this problem is:

One sample T hypothesis test:
: Mean of population
H0 : = 71
HA : > 71

Hypothesis test results:

Hence,

Null and alternative hypotheses: Option D is correct.

Standardized test statistic = 1.03

P - value = 0.156

Decision: Option D is correct.
